My understanding is that an executive order can be withdrawn in say, a hundred days but after that it’s law and takes an act of congress to undo. Not sure what the exact limit is.

Nope. Any executive action can stay in force as such unless removed by another executive action, written legislation by congress or the courts. The first of those is, of course, the fastest and easiest.

Sounds like you are talking about the law of Medes and Persians (Daniel 6:8).

But in reality IMHO you are thinking about a regulatory agency edict. Congress can indeed overrule them by a simple majority vote in both chambers - without the president’s signature and without a cloture vote requiring 60 senators. If Congress acts swiftly.
